Multiphase, segmented polyurethanes with mixed soft segment phase were prepared from 4,4’- diphenylmethane diisocyanate (Pure MDI), polybutylene adipate (glycol) 2000 (PBA2000) and polyethylene glycol 1000 (PEG1000) with 1,4-butanediol (BDO) as the chain extender. Further more, the relationships between domain separation structure, crystallizability of soft segment and moisture permeability, hydrophilic property, phase inversion temperature (PIT) of the polyurethanes were investigated. The studies show that the chemical structure, concentration of hydrophilic soft monomers and the microphase separation degree of the mixed soft segments from hard segment domain have remarkable effects on the application properties of polyurethane.

The famous theorem of Van Aubel for quadrilaterals postulates that if squares are built externally on the sides of any quadrilateral, then the two segments that join the opposing centers of these squares are congruent and orthogonal. Inspired by this result and also by the results of Krishna, in this article we will prove the following result of plane geometry: each octagon is associated with a parallelogram, in some cases the parallelogram in question can be degenerate at a point or a segment. This is possible because of complex numbers and basics of analytical geometry.

Segmented polyurethanes (PUs) are composed of alternating blocks of crystalline or glassy urethane “hard segments” and rubbery “soft segments.” Chemical incompatability between hard segment (HS) and soft segment (SS) blocks produces a two-phase structure, which accounts for the elastomeric properties of these polymer systems. Polyurethanes are prepared with different HS and SS components, and HS:SS ratios, for various applications. Knowledge of the 3D morphology is necessary to understand polyurethane structure-property relationships. Although conventional transmission electron microscopy can image some polyurethanes, high voltage electron microscopy (HVEM) causes less radiation damage and images thicker samples at higher resolution, thus a sample region may be imaged at multiple tilt angles to provide 3D information. High resolution scanning electron microscopy (HR-SEM) provides complementary information, and at low accelerating voltages (1-3 keV), images near surface structures.Polyurethanes were examined with hard segments of methylene diphenylene diisocyanate (MDI) and 2000 MW soft segments of polytetramethylene oxide (PTMO), polybutadiene (PBD) and polydimethysiloxane (PDMS).

Urethane modified polyether liquids composed of hard and soft segments exhibit either positive or negative ER effect depending on the structure. Here some model compounds of the urethane polymers were synthesized, and the influence of chemical structure, e.g. displacement of hard and soft segments and existence of branches, on the ER effect was studied. It was found that negative ER effect is enhanced by introducing a branched structure in the polyether main-chain or a hard segment at center of the linear polyether.

Polyurethanes (PU) have been widely used in many applications since their properties can be tailored as desire. In order to improve their electrical property, PU is incorporated with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). The effects of different mixing times and temperatures on selective dispersion of MWCNT in segmented PU were studied. Furthermore, segmented PU based on two different soft segments; i.e. polyester (PU-ester) and polyether (PU-ether), were used. PU/MWCNT nanocomposites were prepared by an internal mixer for 4-12 minutes at 190-210°C. FESEM, DSC and LCR meter were used to characterize morphology and thermal properties. It was found that MWCNT were dispersed in soft segment of PU-ether. Good MWCNT dispersion was able to achieve at high temperature with short mixing time or low temperature with long mixing time. On the other hand, PU-ester/MWCNT nanocomposites, MWCNT preferred to disperse in hard segment and could be dispersed well in PU-ester at low mixing temperature.

Abstract New novel segmented polyurethane and polyurea copolymers have been synthesized without chain extenders and the structure-property behavior of these systems has been investigated. It is shown that by the proper choice of diisocyanate and its symmetry, one can obtain highly microphase separated systems without chain extenders and that the materials also display useful mechanical behavior. In particular, it is shown that due to the bidentate hydrogen bonding achieved in the segmented ureas, a significant modulus “service temperature window” is also obtained. It is also verified that not only can strong microphase separation be obtained with low weight fraction hard segment content (14%) but that the hard phase, which is comprised of monodisperse “single molecule” units, also displays a percolated thread-like structure throughout the dominant soft segment material — the latter being based on ca. 1000g/mol polytetramethylene oxide.

Liquid Crystalline Elastomer (LCE)-inspired segmented polyurethane elastomers possessing widely different extents of ordering were created to mimic the hierarchical structure of the continuous matrix and superior mechanical performance of spider silk fibers. The silk's remarkable toughness originates from a fiber morphology that possesses [beta]-pleated crystalline sheets within an amorphous matrix. In the polyurethane materials, various extents of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) soft segment ordering were implemented within continuous soft domains that were connected by hexamethylene diisocyanate-butanediol (HDI-BDO) hard segments. Soft segment crystallinity studies revealed the need to optimize the extent of continuous soft domain ordering. Highly crystalline PEO soft segments, while they display good microphase segregation properties, sacrifice extensibility due to their high melting transition temperature. Moderately crystalline PEO soft segments, meanwhile, possess less defined phase segregation but enhanced mechanical properties from their reversible dispersed crystalline soft segment domains. Non-crystalline Pluronic copolymer systems had good mechanical properties that resulted from both a strong hard segment incompatibility and a highly mobile soft segment matrix. Hydrogen-bonded hard domain shearing during in-situ tensile deformation yields oriented hard blocks that align at a preferred tilt angle of ±60° from the strain direction. Extensive alignment and orientation of the moderately-ordered PEO soft segments occurred during deformation, which was consistent with its observed mechanical behavior. Pluronic-containing segmented polyurethanes formed an ordered mesophase in the continuous soft matrix during deformation. A series of cyclic, aliphatic polyurethanes with dicyclohexyl methane diisocyanate (HMDI) hard segments and poly(tetramethylene oxide) (PTMO) soft segments was synthesized to study compositional effects on the extent of soft segment mixing, and how these effects translated to both mechanical and barrier performance. Shorter soft segment chain systems displayed a greater hard segment compatibility, which resulted in materials that were both more rigid mechanically and provided better barrier characteristics.
(cont.) Longer soft segments in the continuous polymer matrix displayed a more phase segregated structure, which enhanced their mechanical properties but sacrificed barrier effectiveness. Incorporation of dimethyl propane diol (DMPD), a branched chain extender, created a completely amorphous polyurethane matrix. Polyurethane/Laponite nanocomposites were also created using particles that were capable of preferentially associating with hard or soft segments. HMDI-BDO-PTMO polyurethane/Laponite nanocomposites demonstrated drastically reduced mechanical performance (~13-fold decrease in toughness and ~10-fold decrease in extensibility). The deteriorated mechanical performance was attributed to the formation of an interconnected hard segment continuous morphology that significantly reduced matrix extensibility. HMDI-DMPDPTMO polyurethane/Laponite composites, on the other hand, only experienced modest reductions in extensibility (-70% of total initial extensibility) while maintaining toughess and increasing initial modulus 10-fold. Mechanical behavior resulted from well-dispersed Laponite clay platelets that reinforced the amorphous polymer matrix while imposing modest chain segmental mobility restrictions.

The real estate sector is a capital-intensive industry, where the combination of debt and equity is used to finance the property investment. Companies tend to increase the loan-to-value ratio, to use financial leverage. However due to banks being more restrictive with their lending as well as having different ways of assessing risk in different property companies, there is a belief that the loan-to-value ratio is affected by the property segment distribution in a company. Based on previous research, there are many factors that could affect the loan-to-value (LTV) in a company such as size, profitability, revenue growth and cost of debt. This paper aims to examine these factors, as well as the operational risk that might be visible in the property segment distribution. The study was done through using a quantitative approach by investigating the largest real estate companies in each Swedish municipality. 614 Swedish real estate companies were investigated and pooled into an OLS regression model. Based on the regression, there is enough evidence in this paper that shows that factors such as size, profitability, revenue growth and cost of debt all have significant impact on the LTV. Furthermore, no general conclusion regarding the relationship between property segment distribution and LTV was found in this paper. Although, there is evidence that residentials- and small house units affect the LTV positively while industrial units affect the LTV negatively.Fastighetssektorn är en kapitalintensiv bransch där kombinationen av skuld och eget kapital används för att finansiera fastighetsinvesteringar. Företag tenderar att öka belåningsgraden för att använda finansiell hävstång. Däremot på grund av att bankerna på senare år blivit mer restriktiva med sin utlåning och att de har olika sätt att bedöma risker på i olika fastighetsbolag, finn fog att förutsätta att belåningsgraden påverkas av fördelningen av fastighetssegment i ett företag. Baserat på tidigare forskning finns det många faktorer som kan påverka belåningsgraden (LTV) i ett företag, såsom storlek, lönsamhet, intäktsökning och kostnad för lånat kapital. Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka dessa faktorer samt den operativa risk som kan synliggöras i fördelningen av fastighetssegment. Studien gjordes via ett kvantitativt tillvägagångssätt genom att undersöka de största fastighetsbolagen i alla Sveriges kommuner. 614 svenska fastighetsbolag undersöktes och analyserades i en OLS- regressionsmodell. Baserat på regressionen finns det tillräckligt med bevis i denna uppsats på att faktorer som storlek, lönsamhet, inkomsttillväxt och kostnad för lånat kapital har en betydande inverkan på LTV. Vidare hittades ingen allmän slutsats angående sambandet mellan fördelning av fastighetssegment och LTV i denna uppsats. Det finns dock bevis för att bostäder och småhusenheter påverkar LTV positivt medan industriella enheter påverkar LTV negativt.

The structure-property relationships for various segmented copolymers were investigated. A number of mechanical and thermal characteristics were determined. The morphology was characterized by SAXS with respect to size and dispersion of domains; degree of phase separation and the domain interfacial thickness.
a. Novel segmented copolymers were synthesized using amino terminated polydimethylsiloxane oligomers as the soft component and various hard component. lt was found that the performance of these copolymers was affected by the varying the hard segment linkages, hard segment content, soft segment MW, stiffness of the siloxane backbone, and amount of chain extender. Two-phase nature of these copolymers was verified by dynamic mechanical, thermal, and SAXS studies. The phase separation was found to occur in these copolymers with as little as 6% HS. These materials displayed behavior similar to the segmented polyurethanes and were found to be superior to the unfilled silicone elastomers. The final materials were used as reasonable models for investigating various methods for determining the interfacial layer thickness between the hard and soft phase. Specifically, due to the fact that there is no hard segment length distribution as is the usual case for segmented urethanes, these materials have some degree of model characteristics. Utilizing Porod's law, and appropriate analysis, both positive and negative deviations were found in the systematic series of copolymers with the degree of positive and negative character dependent upon composition. Negative deviations were accounted for in terms of a finite interfacial thickness which turned out to be relatively small as anticipated, while the positive deviations arose due to isolated hard segments that reside within the soft segment matrix, concentration fluctuations. ln calculating the interfacial thickness, several methods were applied and in general, close agreement was obtained. Finally, correlation function analysis in conjunction with determination of the coherent Porod lengths, etc. were determined and discussed accordingly.
b. The structure-property behavior of novel 'water extended' segmented polyurethane-urea copolymers was also investigated. These copolymers were synthesized by utilizing the dehydration characteristics of tertiary alcohols at sufficiently high temperature in weak acidic medium. Mechanical, thermal, dynamic mechanical, and x-ray experiments were carried out to characterize the morphology and properties of these segmented copolymers of systematically varying hard segment content, soft segment MW, block length, and hard segment type. lt was observed that these properties depended primarily on the degree of order in the hard domains and the order could be improved by increasing either the HS content at constant soft segment MW or soft segment molecular weight at the same HS content. The results obtained for these materials were compared with those from conventional polyurethanes to investigate the effect of intermolecular hydrogen bonding on molecular arrangement.
c. The final series of segmented copolymers studied were based on polysulfone and polydimethylsiloxane, synthesized by solution polymerization. lt is shown that by varying the length of the segments for each phase and their relative content, it is possible to alter the mechanical and thermal characteristics. The mechanical response was also influenced according to which phase is predominantly continuous. In addition to dynamic mechanical and SAXS measurements, the evidence of the two-phase structure was obtained by TEM.Ph. D.

We present our work with a hotel company as an example of how machine learning techniques can be used to improve the demand predictions of a hotel property, as well as its pricing and capacity allocation decisions. First, we build a price-sensitive random forest model to predict the number of daily bookings for each customer market segment. We feed these predictions into a mixed integer linear program (MILP) to optimize prices and capacity allocations at the same time. We prove that the MILP can be equivalently solved as a linear program, and then show that it produces upper and lower bounds for the expected revenue maximization Dynamic Program (DP), and that the gap between the bounds depends on the probabilistic distribution of the demand. Thus, for high prediction accuracies, the optimal value of the DP can be closely approximated by the MILP solution. Finally, numerical results show that the optimized decisions are able to generate an increase in revenue compared to the historical policies, and that the fast running time achieved permits real time policy updates.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Segmented copolymers are a commercially important class of materials that are utilized in a wide variety of applications. In these systems a relatively large number of variables such as backbone chemistry, segment molecular weight, and the overall molecular weight of the copolymer can be independently controlled to engineer materials with targeted properties. Such versatility also means that a large number of variables can influence the morphology and therefore, properties and performance of segmented copolymers. In this dissertation, the influence of selected variables on the solid state structure-property behavior of segmented poly(ether-block-amide), polyurethane, polyurethaneurea, and polyurea copolymers is explored. The specific variables which have been utilized singly or in conjunction with others are hard segment crystallizability, crystallization conditions, hard segment content, soft segment type and molecular weight, nature of hydrogen bonding, extent of inter-segmental hydrogen bonding, segment symmetry, and chain architecture.
In poly(ether-block-amide)s, it was found that the morphology of both the crystalline and the amorphous phase depend upon the polyamide content of the sample and, as expected, the crystallization conditions.
A comparison of polydimethylsiloxane based segmented polyurethanes with their polyurea counterparts demonstrated that for a constant hard segment content the soft segment molecular weight particularly governs the extent of microphase separation in these materials. The nature of hydrogen bonding, monodentate or bidentate, also strongly influences their mechanical response. Remarkably, the polyurea sample with a polydimethylsiloxane molecular weight of 7000 g/mol and a hard segment content of 25 wt % exhibited a remarkable service temperature window (for rubber-like behavior) of ca. 230°C (from -55°C to 175°C) whereas it was ca. 200°C wide (from -55°C to 145°C) for the equivalent polyurethane sample. The extremely high chemical incompatibility between the polydimethylsiloxane of sufficiently high molecular weight and urethane or urea segment is expected to generate a relatively sharp interface between the soft matrix and the dispersed hard domains. Therefore, a polyether co-soft segment was incorporated in a controlled manner along the chain backbone, which resulted in inter-segmental hydrogen bonding between the ether and the urea segments. The consequent segmental mixing gave rise to a gradient interphase, which led to a significant improvement in the tensile strength, and elongation at break in selected polydimethylsiloxane segmented polyurea copolymers.
The importance of the hydrogen bonding network in model polyurethaneurea copolymers was also explored by utilizing LiCl as molecular probe. It has been demonstrated that hydrogen bonding plays an important role, over and above microphase separation, in promoting the long-range connectivity of the hard segments and the percolation of the hard phase through the soft matrix. The incorporation of hard segment branching in these polyurethaneurea also reduced the ability of the hard segments to pack effectively and establish long-range connectivity. The disruption of the percolated hard phase resulted in a systematic softening of the copolymers.
The role of chain architecture in governing the structure/property/processing of segmented was also investigated by comparing highly branched segmented polyurethaneureas with their linear analogs. These copolymers were based on poly(propylene oxide) or poly(tetramethylene oxide) as the soft segments The highly branched copolymers utilized in this dissertation were able to develop a microphase morphology similar to their linear analogs. Particularly noteworthy, and surprising, was the observation of weak second order interference shoulder in the respective small angle X-ray scattering profiles of the highly branched samples based on poly(propylene oxide) of MW 8200 and 12200, indicating the presence of at least some level of long-range order of the hard domains in these samples. Tapping-mode atomic force microscopy phase images of these two samples clearly confirmed the small angle X-ray scattering results. In addition to the strain induced crystallization of the poly(tetramethylene oxide) MW 2000 g/mol based linear polyurethaneureas, the highly branched analog of this sample also exhibited similar behavior at ambient temperature and uniaxial deformation of ca. 400 % strain. Wide angle X-ray scattering confirmed the above observation. The reduced ability of the branched polymers to entangle resulted in slightly poorer mechanical properties, such as tensile strength, elongation at break, and stress relaxation as compared to their linear analogs. However, primarily due to their reduced entanglement density, the branched polyurethaneureas had significantly lower ambient temperature solution viscosity as compared to their linear polyurethaneurea analogs. Therefore, these highly branched polyurethaneureas can be more easily processed than the latter materials.
Finally, it was demonstrated that non-chain extended segmented polyurethane and polyurea copolymers in which the hard segment is based on only a single diisocyanate molecule may well exhibit properties, such as the breadth of the service window, the average plateau modulus, stiffness, tensile strength, and elongation at break that are similar to chain extended segmented copolymers that possess distinctly higher hard segment content. A careful control of the hard segment symmetry and the nature of the hydrogen bonding is necessary to achieve such improved performance in the non-chain extended systems. Therefore, the results of this study provide new direction for the production of thermoplastic segmented copolymers with useful structural properties.Ph. D.

Segmented copolymers are important polymers with attractive properties and wide applications. In this dissertation, segmented polyurethanes containing triptycene units and multiblock copolymers containing poly(arylene ether sulfone) (PAES) and poly(1,4-cyclohexyldimethylene terephthalate) (PCT) segments were synthesized and systematically studied.
Investigation of the influence of the bulky triptycene structure on the morphologies and properties of segmented polyurethanes was carried out by using triptycene-1,4-hydroquinone bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ether (TD) as the chain extender. Segmented polyurethanes based on poly(tetramethylene glycol) (PTMG) of 1000 g/mol were synthesized using a two-step polymerization procedure. Hydroquinone bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ether (HQEE) was used for the purpose of comparison. Hard segments with different bulkiness and flexibility were prepared with hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 4,4'-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate) (MDI), and HQEE or TD as chain extenders. The incorporation of bulky TD and less flexible MDI significantly inhibited hydrogen bonding based on the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) results. In addition, the microphase separation was also disturbed by the bulky and less flexible hard segments with confirmation from tapping mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The flexible HDI can be used to overcome the bulkiness of triptycene, promote microphase separation, and enhance mechanical properties.
Novel PTMG based soft segments containing triptycene units were also prepared with number average molecular weight (Mn) around 2500 g/mol. Then this soft segment was reacted with MDI and HQEE to prepare segmented polyurethanes. Soft segments such as hydroquinone (HQ) containing PTMG (Mn = 2100 g/mol), and pure PTMGs (Mn = 1000 and 2000 g/mol) were used for comparison. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) results demonstrated that triptycene units led to an increased glass transition temperature (Tg) and an elimination of the crystallization of the soft segments. The absence of strain hardening for the triptycene-containing sample suggested a suppressed strain induced crystallization of soft segments, which was also confirmed by the analysis of wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) on the films strained to 370 %.
Crystallizable PCT segments were copolymerized with PAESs to enhance solvent resistance and mechanical properties. PAES oligomers (Mn = 2000 g/mol) were first synthesized, and then reacted with dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM). Weight percentages of PCT segments were gradually changed from 20 wt% to 80 wt%. With PCT content greater than 50 wt%, crystallinity was observed by DSC, DMA, and WAXD. The extent of crystallinity of the copolymers was dependent on the wt% of PCT. Furthermore, crystallization behavior of copolymers based on two CHDMs with different isomer ratios (cis/trans 30/70 and all trans) were studied. Due to their more symmetric structure, copolymers based on all trans CHDM exhibited a higher extent of crystallization.Ph. D.

The synthesis and characterization of a variety of ammonium ionenes from water-soluble coatings to high-performance elastomers are discussed. Water-soluble random copolymer ionenes were synthesized using the Menshutkin reaction from 1,12-dibromododecane, N,N,N⠲,N⠲-tetramethyl-1,6-hexanediamine, and 1,12-bis(N,N-dimethylamino)dodecane. The absolute molecular weights were determined for the first time using a multiangle laser light scattering detector in aqueous size exclusion chromatography and the weight-average molecular weights of these ionenes were in the range of 17,000-20,000 g/mol. Charge density increased with increasing molar ratio of N,N,N⠲,N⠲-tetramethyl-1,6-hexanediamine and the glass transition temperature (Tg) increased from 69 °C to 90 °C as the charge density increased. Small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) showed isotropic scattering patterns for these ionenes. A limited study on cytotoxicity of these ionenes showed no direct correlation between charge density and cell viability for human brain microvascular endothelial cell line.
A series of low hard segment (HS) content, poly(propylene glycol) (PPG)-based ammonium ionenes were synthesized using a Menshutkin reaction from bromine end-capped PPG oligomers (prepared using acid-chloride reactions) and N,N,Nâ ²,Nâ ²-tetramethyl-1,6-hexanediamine. Matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry, titration analyses, and 1H NMR spectroscopy, confirmed the difunctionality of bromine end-capped PPG oligomers. Thermal analysis revealed Tgâ s of -60 °C, comparable to pure PPG, using differential scanning calorimetery (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) confirming microphase separation, and an onset of degradation (Td) at 240 °C.
Synthesis of a series of random block copolymer ammonium ionenes with an aliphatic 1,12-dibromododecane as part of the hard segment (33 wt% HS) enhanced film formation and supported microphase separation property. The Td and Tg did not change compared to PPG-ionenes with lower HS content. DMA and tensile testing demonstrated the influence of soft segment (SS) molecular weight and hard segment (HS) content on the mechanical properties of segmented ammonium ionenes. DMA showed the onset of flow, ranging from 100-140 ºC for 1K and 2K g/mol PPG-based ionenes respectively. SAXS revealed a Bragg distance scaled with soft segment molecular weight and ranged from 6.6 to 23.4 nm for 1K to 4K g/mol PPG-based ionenes, respectively.
An investigation of the salt-responsive solubility property of random block copolymer PPG-ionenes revealed a dependence on PPG molecular weight. The 1K g/mol PPG-based ionenes with a hydrophilic (HPL)/hydrophobic (HPB) value ranging from one to three showed solubility in both water and one wt% NaCl aqueous solutions. The 2K g/mol PPG-based ionenes containing HPL/HPB value of two to 15 showed cloudy dispersions in water and one wt% NaCl solutions. The 4K g/mol PPG-based ionenes possessed the salt-responsive character; 4K g/mol PPG-based ionenes with HPL/HPB values of one to 12 showed milky dispersions in water, suspended particles in one wt% NaCl solutions and film precipitation at a HPL/HPB molar ratio of 19.

The foundational studies of this dissertation concern the characterization of segmented polyurethanes and polyureas synthesized without the use of chain extendersâ molecules that are typically used to promote a microphase separated morphology that gives these materials their useful characteristics. Polyurethanes in which a single asymmetric diisocyanate comprising the whole of the hard segment were found to display poor microphase separation. Conversely, polyurethanes in which a single symmetric diisocyanate composed the hard segment were found to display good microphase separation. The more efficient packing of the symmetric hard segments also led to an increase in hard segment connectivity and hence higher values of storage moduli in these systems. When hydroxyl-terminated diisocyanates were replaced with amine-terminated diisocyanates, polyureas were formed. Here too, diisocyanate symmetry was found to play a key role with symmetric diisocyanates leading to better microphase separation. In addition, the polyurea materials displayed broader service temperature windows than their polyurethane counterparts as the relatively stronger bidentate hydrogen bonding replaced monodentate hydrogen bonding in these materials. A thread-like, microphase separated morphology was visually confirmed using atomic force microscopy. Other techniques such as ambient temperature tensile testing, and wide and small angle x-ray scattering were employed to confirm the presence of the microphase separated structure.
The investigation into the effects of diisocyanate chemistry and its symmetry was broadened to incorporate non-chain extended polyurethane materials with different soft segment molecular weights, as well as polyurethanes that did contain chain extenders. Once again the effect of using symmetric versus asymmetric diisocyanates was evident in the structureâ property behavior of these systems, with symmetric diisocyanates forming materials that displayed better microphase separation and more connectivity of their hard domains.
Lastly, in a departure from the segmented copolymer area, a study was conducted into the influence of casting variables on the solid-state structure of synthetic polypeptide films based on glutamate chemistry. The effect of solvent evaporation was determined to play a key role in the morphology of these polypeptide films. Measured small angle light scattering patterns were compared to computer calculated patterns to reveal information about the structure, shape, and length scale of the polypeptide structure.Ph. D.

This thesis aims to explore if the existence of portfolio price premiums can be verified and if they differ in time and over property segments. The purpose is to contribute with valuable insights within the field of portfolio premiums in the real estate industry. In order to explore this further a regression model was developed. The model includes six portfolio variables controlling for size in the aspect of transactional value and number of properties included in the portfolio. We further test if the premium varies over property segments and over time. The data was provided by Cushman & Wakefield and consists of 825 property transactions. The results show that a portfolio premium for small, medium and large portfolios with a transactional value over 500 million SEK, and a discount on small portfolios with a transactional value below 500 million SEK is present. The premium was found to be 17.5% for small portfolios, 16.8% for medium sized and 26.3% for large portfolios. While premiums were found for portfolios with a transactional value over 500 million SEK an 13.7% discount was found for small portfolios with a transaction value below 500 million SEK. Which indicates that investors are willing to pay a premium, but only for larger portfolios. Furthermore, the only segment test with significant results were residential and industrial of which residential indicated a discount on small and medium portfolios with a transactional value over 500 million SEK and industrial indicated a discount on small portfolios with a transactional value over 500 million SEK. The test of variation of a portfolio premium over time gave mixed results and showed that investors payed a premium for medium and large portfolios with a transactional value over 500 million SEK during 2010 - 2015.Detta masterarbete syftar till att undersöka fenomenet portföljpremier och bidra till utökad kunskap om premier och möjliga förklaringar till varför de uppkommer. Författarna har undersökt om det går att kvantifiera den påstådda portföljpremien och om denna skiljer sig över fastighetsegmenten och tid. Syftet med arbete är att bidrag med värdefulla insikter och kunskap om portföljpremier inom fastighetsbranschen. För att kunna besvara frågeställningen utvecklade författarna en regressionsmodell. Modellen innehöll sex portföljvariabler som bland annat kontrollerade för storlek i förhållande till transaktionsvärde samt antal fastigheter inkluderade i portföljen. För att undersöka om premien varierade över fastighetssegment och med tid utfördes fem olika segmentstest och två års tester. Data som användes i regressionerna tillhandahölls av Cushman & Wakefield. Resultatet av studien visar att det finns en portföljpremie på små, medelstora och stora fastighetsportföljer med ett transaktionsvärde över 500 millioner kronor. Premien noterades till 17,5% för små portföljer, 16,8% för medelstora portföljer och 26,3% för stora portföljer. Medans en premie noterades för portföljer med ett transaktionsvärde över 500 millioner kronor kunde en rabatt om 13,7% hittas för små portföljer med etttransaktionsvärde under 500 millioner kronor. Segmenttesten som genomfördes gav blandade resultat. De test som gav signifikanta resultat var segmentstest för industri och bostäder. Resultatet av regressionen visade att det finns en rabatt för små och medelstora bostadsportföljer med ett transaktionsvärde överstigande 500 millioner kronor samt en rabatt för små industriportföljer med ett transaktionsvärde över 500 millioner kronor. Utöver segmentstesten gjordes även två tester där författarna testade om premien varierade över tid. Likaså här gav testerna blandade resultat. Det kan konstateras att en premie återfinns för portföljer handlade under perioden 2010 - 2015.

This book is a collection of articles, prepared for the 1st State Congress of Fashion Law in Santa Catarina, which took place in Brusque / SC in 2019. There are several topics addressed by the authors, since the Law of Fashion covers all spheres of law. Law and fashion are social elements, both linked to the Economy and the Market, where intellectual property has a strong presence. But, it is not only the intellectual property that should be known by the lawyer who seeks to act and research this segment. Fashion Law covers several spheres of law, which in this market are well intertwined, as you can study in this work. You will have contact with topics of intellectual property, contracts, Labor Law, among others, in order to be able to make a small immersion in the matter, whose view is always the fashion industry, one of the most powerful economic and market spheres today. Obviously, there will be subjects that you will prefer, however, an analysis of all of them in this collection will provide you with a broadening of horizons and a journey through the world of fashion law. Good reading!

It is shown how the theory of PDM accounts for instances of subtractive MLM—the empirical phenomenon that is notoriously challenging for the claim that morphology is additive. Two general mechanisms inside PDM can predict subtractive MLM: usurpation of moras and the defective integration of morphemic prosodic nodes. Usurpation can arise if a segment underlyingly lacks a mora and ‘usurps’ it from a neighbouring segment that is hence deprived of it. In the second scenario, a prosodic node that is underlyingly not integrated into the higher/lower prosodic structure is affixed to a base and remains defectively integrated in the output. Given the standard assumption that only elements properly integrated under the highest prosodic node of the prosodic hierarchy are visible for the phonetics, this affix node and everything it dominates remain phonetically uninterpreted. It is shown how all attested types of subtractive MLM in the representative data set fall out from these two basic mechanisms.

AbstractMandible, a horseshoe shaped bone of the facial skeleton, is one of the sturdy bones in humans. Prominent chin is a unique feature of anatomically modern man in comparison with his anthropological ancestors. The simian shelf has reduced to two genial tubercles to which two muscles are attached. The neck of the condyle has narrowed and acts as a buffer to budge by fracture if there is a severe force on the prominent chin. These evolutionary changes facilitated increased space for the tongue as men started articulation. It articulates with the temporal bone by two inter-dependent Temporo-mandibular joints. Mandible is important in both function and aesthetics.Mandible can be cut into multiple pieces and re-arranged and fixed to achieve aesthetic and functional changes. Facial bones have a tremendous capacity to regenerate and heal provided proper blood supply is ensured to the cut segments. Ostoetomies of the mandible can be done on ramus, body, chin, dento-alveolar region, inferior border, etc. Most of these procedures are done intraorally. Technological advancements have aided orthognathic surgery at large. This chapter envisages to elaborate different techniques of osteotomy of mandible.

Affricates represent an analytic challenge, as a category intermediate between simple stops and a sequence of a stop and a fricative. The paper traces the historical evidence for the development of OE [c], a single segment, to palatal [cj], assibilated [tʃ], the sequence [tʃ], and back to a single segment contour /t͡ʃ/, building on diagnostics like the blocking property of medial clusters versus singletons in resolution in OE verse, alliteration, metrical treatment in terms of syllable weight, data from language acquisition, phonetics in terms of durational properties, the interaction with Middle English sound changes, as well as the early neutralization of the singleton-geminate contrast. Further support comes from spelling, including a possible Celtic origin for OE <cg>, and <ch> spellings in LAEME as evidence supporting Orthographic Remapping of Palatal c. Finally, the author considers the impact of Old French loanwords, where the simplification of affricates in Anglo-Norman is argued to be delayed compared to Central French due to the existence of the sequences [tʃ] and [dʒ] in Middle English.

The chapter investigates the property marketing enterprises in northern England, UK, through examination of the Macro/Micro environments and using standard evaluation of the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threat (SWOT)factors and the Political, Economic, Social and Technological, Environmental (ecological) and Legal (PESTEL) factors, and five forces analyses in order to explore the enterprise's standing within the market place. The PESTEL analysis provides a ‘Big Picture' of the environments in which the small enterprises operate along with identifying key strategic opportunities and threats. Insights gained here will allow entrepreneurs to take advantage of the opportunities and minimise the threats. The research methodology is examined through a real case study in a small enterprise company called Property-Marketing Company based in the UK. The findings show that the small firm seem to be in a strong sustainable position within the regional property marketing segment, and have the potential to expand. The findings also reveal that the entrepreneur's goals are reasonably well established whereas they currently suffer from the lack of a strategic plan to achieve their goals. The project aims to provide a strategic business plan for the company under study with an effective process flow in order to maximise available time, and a strategic plan of how to grow the business.

This chapter investigates the field of contemporary French documentary as a source for cultural representations of farmland and farm life, a segment of the national territory that has undergone profound change in the past half-century. Farmland, which represents over half of the surface area of metropolitan France, provides employment to an ever-smaller percentage of the population. The amount of land needed to make a living continues to grow, and farms are increasingly run by corporations rather than by people who live and work on the same property. Since 2000, a significant number of French documentaries have explored to the changes wrought to the landscape and to farm life by the agricultural industrialisation of the previous half-century. By reading across a broad collection of recent documentaries on farming, this chapter reveals the contours of a broader conversation about the emergence of, and need for, new forms of reconnection between the inhabitants of rural and urban France. The contours of this conversation emerge both in the documentary forms and practices in the films as well as new forms of interaction between films and their audiences.

In the paper an analysis of functional correlations of property prices with the main locational and socio-economic variables, which generally contribute to define the market value of properties, has been developed. Locational characteristics are represented by the surfaces of soil used for the main functions, borrowing the logic of the system of classification of CORINE Land Cover (European Commission). The analysis has been contextualized to the 258 municipalities of the Apulia region (Southern Italy), and has been referred to two different moments (years 2006 and 2011), and two different market segments (residential and retail). The functional relationships between property prices and explanatory variables considered, estimated through a software that implements a genetic algorithm, are particularly interesting. The methodology outlined constitutes a valuable reference for the definition of models aimed at supporting, in a more rational and convenient way, public planning decisions and private investment choices.

The author continues to present his analysis of various aspects of the violation of educators’ rights at the national and international levels, which he has articulated extensively in publications and conferences. This is of particular importance in the current context of uncertainty regarding the content of Generation Z and even more so about Generation Alpha’s professional activities. Given that up to 85% of professions, to which part of them shall be ready as early as in a decade, have not yet been identified even by name, the education system is faced with the challenge of developing special qualities of personality - sustainability, adaptability to change and the desire for self-development. Can an educator under systemic pressure from violations of academic rights and freedoms provide an effective solution to such a challenge? The author begins to seek an answer to this question by drawing attention to the contradictions in the dispositions of public and private law regarding intellectual property, work quota settings for teaching staff and the rating of the effectiveness of educational activities. The employed methodology of content analysis allowed for the author’s conclusions concerning the necessity of amending the regulatory procedure of higher school function for the purpose of the remedy of the mentioned disproportions to be justified. A proposal was made on the need for reconcilation of institutional innovations in the course of recovery of the basis of university autonomy regarding the elaboration of objective parameters of ranking universities both at national and at international levels, the correction of work quotas for teachers in order to achieve comparability in the activities of the academic community in the two dimensions of its actors: in the scientific, in which pedagogy is the accompanying activity segment, and in the pedagogical, in which pedagogy is the accompanying activity segment.

This work responds to a need to obtain statistically adequate quantities of input data for probabilistic assessments of girth welded pipelines. It is desirable to limit the data collection efforts to that warranted by overall reliability and confidence requirements. This is motivated by the challenge of limited and/or high-cost access to in-service pipelines for property measurement and flaw inspection. The goal of this work is to develop a methodology for specifying the minimum, cost-optimized sampling frequency for each of the model input parameters in a multiple girth weld fitness-for-service (FFS) assessment. The sampling frequency specifies the number of samples for each of the model variables to minimize the given cost function. The methodology is based on a user-specified confidence level for the computed reliability of a given pipeline segment (or segments), as well as the estimated per-sample cost of obtaining data for each parameter. The methodology is implemented as an add-on module in the GirthRel computer program. By expressing FFS in the language of risk-based inspection and maintenance, tools such as the one developed here will be invaluable to the development of a pipeline risk management system.

The virtual reality is a multi-functional, interactive and immersible technology. As an advanced engineering design technology, the virtual reality technology (VRT) has been widely used in large mining machinery design and manufacturing. The system is based on DIVISION Mockup2000i2 software. Virtual prototype of the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) is studied in this paper. In addition, the movement simulation of TBM is completed in DIVISION Mockup2000i2. Firstly, CATIA software is adopted to build the parts of TBM. The TBM is assembled in CATIA too. Secondly, the THEOREM software is applied to convert the assembled model of TBM to another format which can be identified in DIVISION MOCKUP2000i2 software. In order to make the TBM image living, life-like and easy to browse, the light of surface, virtual materials and landmark scenes are set up in DIVISION MOCKUP2000i2 software environment. All motion parameters of the parts are defined before the simulation. Then, the virtual movement simulation of TBM components is analyzed with the behaviors property of MOCKUP. The virtual movement of cutting wheel, screw conveyor machinery and the door of mud out are studied. The virtual movement of segments and segment erector machine are completed by setting up virtual parts and virtual event. Five segments are fixed accurately in a cycle. The relations and interference of the parts movement are examined simultaneity. The hotkey is defined before the simulation, which can trigger the continuous implementation of virtual motion. In addition, a virtual voice is used to enhance the performance of movement simulation. The virtual prototype of TBM being set up and simulated will have positive significance for design inspection, structural analysis and product introduction without TBM physical prototype being manufactured.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful and increasingly common modality of biomechanical investigation, including imaging, force spectroscopy, and microrheology. AFM indentation of biomaterials requires use of a contact model for data interpretation and material property extraction, and a large segment of the scientific community uses the Hertz model or a close relative for small-scale indentation of thin, soft materials in high strain applications. We present experimental results and analytical/numerical modeling which lead to two main conclusions: (i) Hertzian mechanics are useful in a surprisingly large parameter range, including scenarios in which the underlying assumptions are seemingly violated, and (ii) the Hertz solution serves as a useful base from which power-series type solutions can be derived for a variety of non-Hertzian effects.

The performance of pipelines in areas prone to ground deformations is a major concern for utility owners since the failures of such pipeline systems could cause property damage and even human losses, in addition to business disruption. An analytical solution to determine the response of plastic pipelines subject to abrupt relative ground movement occurring perpendicular to the pipe axis is presented herein. The method accounts for the combined impacts of tension and bending in a pipe segment. Furthermore, the model considers the nonlinear stress-strain behavior of the pipe material and employs an advanced analytical model to calculate the frictional force development along the pipeline. The results obtained from this analytical approach are validated by comparing with the results obtained from a numerical model using soil-spring analysis and the actual viscoelastic material behavior for the pipe material.

The stability of translating flexible beam that passes through the elastic support is investigated. We modeled the flexible beam using the finite segment method to account for the geometric nonlinearities due to the large rotation, as it is the time variant system. Numerical simulation results show the instability of the beam, that is stable in the low axial moving velocity, is observed as the axial moving velocity increases. It is clarified from the consideration with the simplified rigid beam model that the mass and damping coefficient ratio of the elastic support yields negative damping effect of the system and the damping coefficient and stiffness ratio of the elastic support yields negative stiffness effect of the system as the axial moving velocity increases. These results show that the property of the elastic support gives the significant effect on the instability of the translating beam.

It is well know that the belt friction is expressed in an exponential function of a product μ and θ, the coefficient of friction and the angle of contact between the flexible belt and the cylindrical surface respectively. So the frictional force increases greatly with an increment of contact angle θ. Using this property, many kinds of buckles were developed to fasten belt. But the locking condition of belt is not obtained from the equation unless θ is of infinity. Their locking conditions were not clarified theoretically. In practice, the product of μθ is usually less than θ, so that the exponent of the product μθ is not so large. Then some slippage may occur in case of severe loading condition. This study is focusing on a self-locking mechanism of a simple buckle developed for flat belt. The belt in the buckle is partially wound again over the belt. According to the equation derived, the fraction of the tight side belt tension to the loose side belt tension is significantly affected by the angle of double-layered segment. With an increment of angle of doublelayered segment, the fraction increases to infinity, which means the occurrence of belt locking. The locking condition is determined by the geometry of the buckle and the coefficient of frictions. The frictional force is automatically generated by the tension of belt so that the self-locking mechanism is realized in the buckle. The equation derived was confirmed by the experiments.

Abstract With the rise in use of IEDs during armed conflicts, there has been an increase in the number of injuries to the extremities. Shrapnel and debris ejected during the explosion become high-speed projectiles capable of penetrating soft tissues, bringing bacterial contamination into the wound. If not properly treated, that contamination could lead to infection. Studies aimed at understanding the distribution of bacterial contamination along the permanent cavity could provide useful information to improve treatment protocols for these types of injuries. In this paper, a lower extremity surrogate model was used to investigate bacterial distribution in partial penetration ballistic wounds. The targets used were ballistic gelatin blocks that had an Escherichia coli-laden filter paper placed on their front face. Spherical projectiles were fired into the targets adjusting their speed to obtain three different partial penetration depths. After each shot, a gelatin strip containing the permanent cavity was extracted and segmented. The permanent cavity was removed from each segment, placed in a test tube with buffer solution, and heated in a water bath to melt the gelatin. Standard microbiology protocols were followed to determine the number of colony forming units (CFUs) in each segment. The bacteria distribution was represented by percent of total CFU in the permanent cavity versus segment number. In addition, bacterial contamination as a function of projectile penetration depth was explored. For the cases considered, most of the bacterial contamination occurred in the segments closer to the projectile entry point.

Serving as a windbreak, properly sited and designed snow fences have been proven effective in mitigating the negative impacts of blowing snow. To achieve the best snow-control effects, the ideal locations for snow fences are usually outside the roadway right-of-way. Few efforts have been made to examine the economic efficiency of snow fences and explore ways to reward private landowners. The objective of this project was to develop methodologies for evaluation of the costs and benefits of snow fences in Illinois and identify ways to encourage private landowners’ participation in the snow fence program while keeping it cost-effective. The researchers conducted a literature review as well as agency and landowner surveys. They also acquired crash data, snow fence and blowing snow segment inventory data, and blowing snow removal expenditure data as well as performed benefit-cost analyses of three types of snow fences following Federal Highway Administration guides. The survey results suggested that standing corn rows (SCRs) and structural snow fences (SSFs) were the least intrusive options for landowners and living snow fences (LSFs) with trees were the most intrusive. Some concerns related to LSFs could be reduced by allowing landowners to play a role in the design and plant-selection process. The crash data indicated that no fatal and severe crashes occurred at snow fence segments, while several fatal and severe crashes occurred at blowing snow segments during 2012–2016. The results of the benefit-cost analyses showed that the benefit-cost ratios for LSFs and SSFs are comparable. However, LSFs are favorable over SSFs because little maintenance is needed after the plants are mature. Although SCRs have the highest benefit-cost ratio, the need to renew the agency-landowner agreement annually and the alternating of crops planted may limit their snow-control effectiveness and large-scale implementation. A tool was developed using MS Excel to facilitate the benefit-cost analysis of snow fences.

In the face of the multiple shocks currently experienced by the domestic economy (resulting from the drop in oil prices and the appearance of a global pandemic), the Colombian financial system is in a position of sound solvency and adequate liquidity. At the same time, credit quality has been recovering and the exposure of credit institutions to firms with currency mismatches has declined relative to previous episodes of sudden drops in oil prices. These trends are reflected in the recent fading of red and blue tonalities in the performance and credit risk segments of the risk heatmaps in Graphs A and B.1 Naturally, the sudden, unanticipated change in macroeconomic conditions has caused the appearance of vulnerabilities for short-term financial stability. These vulnerabilities require close and continuous monitoring on the part of economic authorities. The main vulnerability is the response of credit and credit risk to a potential, temporarily extreme macroeconomic situation in the context of: (i) recently increased exposure of some banks to household sector, and (ii) reductions in net interest income that have led to a decline in the profitability of the banking business in the recent past. Furthermore, as a consequence of greater uncertainty and risk aversion, occasional problems may arise in the distribution of liquidity between agents and financial markets. With regards to local markets, spikes have been registered in the volatility of public and private fixed income securities in recent weeks that are consistent with the behavior of the international markets and have had a significant impact on the liquidity of those instruments (red portions in the most recent past of some market risk items on the map in Graph A). In order to adopt a forward-looking approach to those vulnerabilities, this Report presents a stress test that evaluates the resilience of credit institutions in the event of a hypothetical scenario thatseeks to simulate an extreme version of current macroeconomic conditions. The scenario assumes a hypothetical negative growth that is temporarily strong but recovers going into the middle of the coming year and has extreme effects on credit quality. The results suggest that credit institutions have the ability to withstand a significant deterioration in economic conditions in the short term. Even though there could be a strong impact on credit, liquidity, and profitability under the scenario being considered, aggregate capital ratios would probably remain at above their regulatory limits over the horizon of a year. In this context, the recent measures taken by both Banco de la República and the Office of the Financial Superintendent of Colombia that are intended to help preserve the financial stability of the Colombian economy become highly relevant. In compliance with its constitutional objectives and in coordination with the financial system’s security network, Banco de la República will continue to closely monitor the outlook for financial stability at this juncture and will make the decisions that are necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the economy, facilitate the flow of sufficient credit and liquidity resources, and further the smooth functioning of the payment system.
